There will be two boats at the disposal of club members divided into 6 members per boat. If 12 members signup we will be going in tandem. There is actually no limit to the number of persons that can sign up for either outing, however only a maximum of 12 can go at one time. 

The full day fishing consists of a full day ~9 hours of fishing or a half day 6 hour trip. This outing is for adults or youth 12 years of age or older. A parent or adult guardian must accompany those 17 and under. You may bring a cooler with your own drinks and snacks. CB Charters will provide everything needed for fishing as well as a full time mate whose sole responsibility is to assist everyone including those that may not have any prior fishing experience. The mate will also clean and package fish to take home.

Costs & Charter Agreements

Signups will be made first come first serve for specific dates and time.  Several dates are available, but start to book soon.   Current Dates are tentatively Aug 9, 10, 16, 17 depending on the interest.
